This new ad campaign from Pot Noodle for their range of Italian Pot Pasta’s shows two wannabe opera stars tired of not having enough time to fulfil their dreams.

So to free up some extra minutes they swap preparing a full homemade Italian meal for a couple of Pot Pasta’s, at which point they’re joined in their home by Britain’s Got Talent winner and professional opera performer Paul Pott’s.

Asking “Hello there neighbours did you call my name?”, the couple respond “Not you Potts, but these pots. It does sound the same.” The pair then declare “Thanks to Pot Pasta we’ve made time it seems, to sing our hearts out and follow our dreams.”

The song given these creative new lyrics is the duet Verdi: La Traviata, Act 1 – “Libiamo ne’lieti calici” (Brindisi), which has been performed by many great opera singers over the years, including Luciano Pavarotti.

The above 60-second version of this ‘Pot Pasta the Opera ft. Paul Potts – You Can Make Italian’ advert was posted to the Pot Noodle YouTube channel on the 29th of August, 2017.
